So for lunch today I took a mating prospect for some good pizza. I paid for everything including her two $3.50 (EACH) cream sodas. We ordered a large "Hawaiian" pizza with an a bacon extra, was great. It wasn't bad for an independent Pizza place, but it's definitely not as good as the big chains. So here's my list of the best Pizza places, ranked in a list.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Here we go.

5- !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . There's a lot of Italians in Boston and they clearly know how to make great Pizza.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

4- !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . Best sausage in town, I always take an extra and call it the sausage fest.

3- !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . They invented the stuffed crust so props for that

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

2- !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , their wings are out of this world

1- !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . They are first because they think outside the box. They don't simply make a pizza like anybody else. They are also geographically aware. They always have a local variety.

Don't think Papa John's pizza is fantastic but they did give me a free 1 topping pie for owning a Camaro so they are definitely the most Jalop of the bunch.

No love for Sbarro? If you get one fresh that hasn't been drying out under heat lamps all day, it comes within maybe 75% of a mom and pop pizza, which is a bit closer than other chains.

So, are you ranking the stores for their market presence or their pizza? Looking at the list, I would have to say that it can't be based on taste.

I mean, the toppings aren't bad, but the crust just lets the whole pie down. And after that, it's just like trying to build a sand castle in a stream. All the garlic butter in the world won't save it.

Are you serious? because if you, oh man am I sorry for you. The pizza place by me has the best damn donair pizza you will ever have. It will literally change your life. Boston pizza is okay, but it wouldn't rank in a top ten/five/whatever list. The others are terrible.

They must not have good local pizza in Canada. Everywhere I go here in Illinois local places are better. I'm even in the sticks in Central IL! Had a few Chicago pizzas that were pretty good, but I'm more of a thin crust fan.

Just reading this list made me go check to see how much TP was in the bathroom, and make sure it's the good soft kind that you need when crapping your brains out.

The only explanation to your rankings is that you were raised on a strict diet of chicken nuggets and those fluffy marshmallow-ish circus peanuts.

Find a good local shop that does their own thing, with fresh home-made sauce / dough / toppings, and you will experience Pizza Zen. Otherwise all of the chains are just preservatives and artificial flavorings. Blah.

Boston does not have great Pizza. There's Regina's with a few locations and Ernesto's in the North end, that's it. I don't know why they came up with that name. Chicago has deep dish pizza, and I guess it's Uno's thing.

Where are you from in Canada? I grew up in Montreal and the Indy shops always had the best pies. Something about the sauce, and the slightly sweet dough. Not as oily as most american chains. I miss it and always eat a metric ton of it (with poutine) when I go back.

It wasn't bad for an independent Pizza place, but it's definitely not as good as the big chains.

This sentence just 'sploded my foodie hipster brains all over the room. Chain pizza is awful. Too salty, too blergh, awful, awful, awful.

I'm in by no means a pizza town, but even the meh indies here are so much less flergh-inducing than the chains. Then again, the worst Italian I've ever had was in BC, so I feel for ya. The struggle is real.

Here, if I'm gonna go full death-by-pizza, Via 313 (Detroit-style trailer) is the tits. I can usually only make it through half because there's so much butter, but...butter. Mmmm. Butter. I think they cook it in butter and add more butter on top. This will be the end of me far before "hold my Puffalump and watch this." Little Deli is pretty good for normal thin-crust pizza. Then there's Rosati's (Waco) or Star Pizza (Houston) if I want Chicago-style—actual Chicago style, not some BS giant breadwad thing.
